DaveKap posted:Layton even scoffs at it like he gets the joke, which I loved. I don't think they changed anything? Ruth is now holed up in what used to be first class, which is completely frozen over now, and all the way in the "back" of the train, as far away from Big Alice and Wilford's place as it gets. So Big Alice is still where it was, which must be slightly awkward because to get anywhere in the Snowpiercer cars they have to go through what used to be the tail. What I don't know if is the train is going forward now, that is Big Alice started pulling as soon as Snowpiercer went its own way, or they kept the entire thing in reverse for all that time. Which seems kinda dangerous because the engineer can't see as well what's ahead in that case.

As for flu, I think it is possible for viruses to be dormant in someone's cells for many years, and then 'wake up' and mutate so that the host doesn't have immunity and neither does anyone else. I think this is more common for viruses that inject their DNA into a host cell's nucleus such as HIV (because DNA can stick around a long time) but perhaps it's possible for flu too.OldMemes posted:In theory, with a geothermal power source, could a bunker survive in the freeze? Instead of directly answering that question I suggest you read the short story "A pail of air" by Fritz Leiber. You can read it for free here: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/51461/51461-h/51461-h.htm It's fiction so it isn't much of a scientific answer but I always found that story some nice food for thought.

Scrotum Modem posted:It looked like some explosion in the air but then they specially show pieces of a rocket falling back down. Sort of reminds me of pieces of thruster rockets for a shuttle launch that fall back to Earth - obviously a smaller version of the real thing - but it doesn't really look like anything went further up because of it so it probably wasn't. Who knows. I'm probably 100% way off heh. Perhaps there's another group of survivors involved with it and this has something to do with it: My assumption for that scene was Wilford took his li'l vehicle to some storage shack of his, grabbed some rockets, and used it to blow up a piece of track in order to divert Snowpiercer to some place where he can sneak aboard to take over again.

Nice. I was quite annoyed by it being left as an unfinished story.
